团队的问题

团队个人之间的不信任现在慢慢地体现出来了。本来就不是一个团结的整体,有这样的情况也非常的正常,对吧。

资金是有的,然而几个问题要弄清晰一些。

第一,这是谁的公司。拖了那么久仍然没有批下来?

第二,对外交谈时候应该谁来主导

第三,经营方向。方向决定了一切,包括招人,包括技术方案的方向,还有各种。

搬家完毕,很累。

搬家的最后一刻,我仍然在想,我为什么要放弃在桃源村那个舒适的环境呢。

至少我们东西还没有搬完,已经有几趟人开始问我们你的房子退租了吗?然后争着要房东的电话。

我觉得两年前我选择在桃源村这里住是正确的,这更像是一个避世的场所,一个可以专心做饭和煲汤的环境。07年大量的baby要出生了,这里无疑应该是一个适合他们幼小童年发展的地点。还是把地方给需要它的人吧。

搬走,一点留恋都没有。

然后到了松坪村,一次迁移的成本真的是相当的高。啊

没事真的别搬家了哦。

有点累。

公司的事情和搬家的事情。

而属于情感方面的烦恼哪怕是再烦恼我也不会放在心上。

事情开始做了就要做好,这是公司的事情的想法。

要快点收拾东西了,这是搬家的事情。

实际上时间也不是那么的急迫。不过这样压力反而大,给足你时间了,你就要交出合适的答卷,对不对。

虽然星座上说,太阳已经在巨蟹宫了,实际上这样说是不符合天文学的。因为目前,太阳还在双子座和金牛座交界的地方呢。

所以,我说,星座学的星座在什么方位,只是一个针对于地球时间的点。而跟星星没有关系。

玉颜不及寒鸦色

小时候看唐诗三百首,绿色的封面,香港某书局出的,封面是一幅插图,窗中一妙龄女子看着飞过的乌鸦在发愁。

两侧是两句:玉颜不及寒鸦色,犹带昭阳日影来。

问我吗什么意思,大概知道一些意思,然而理解不了那种愁绪。

小学时候,隔壁班有个小姑娘的名字就叫

玉颜

,觉得有点可怜,似乎注定不及寒鸦色了。那小姑娘的老爸是卖猪肉的。那小姑娘也很凶悍的样子,踢足球,初中的时候已经把大腿踢得比一般男生要粗。

昨天看到一格谜语,围棋比赛,黑胜白。打一句唐诗。

谜底见本文标题。

今生无悔,黎明的起点,温兆伦的定型

虽然黎明和温兆伦日后都在乐坛有所发展,然而今生无悔的主题曲是有当时大红的过江龙王杰主唱的。黎明经历这么一部长达40集的电视剧洗礼,在香港深入人心,为日后成为偶像派天王打下基础,而温兆伦则失去了一种良好的势头,无论后来怎么饰演正派角色,都无补于事了。

今天的

晴朗

记黎明在《今生无悔》中的三段情

《今生无悔》是一部由

字编织而的现代戏,亲情、友情、爱情,缠绕着黎明

程朗这个男主角,上演了一幕又一幕感人至深、惹人泪下悲喜剧,其中,最能让影迷时时记挂心头、几可与之同呼吸共命运的,永远都是程朗的爱情心路。多年前,曾为此深深激动过、伤心过,现在回首,还是不得不感叹一句,这部戏的编剧还真是非一般的

,程朗的三段情,固然不乏温馨甜蜜,但归根究底,竟然全部都是

不能说明天

的爱情T_T

与妻子素梅,结识、热恋于年少轻狂、离家出走的大学时代,程朗,是爱得那么的热烈张扬、肆无忌惮,感觉对了,就放手去追,孩子来了,便辍学养家。不是不能斥之为草率行事、不顾后果,只是,爱情之中,若加上太多的斤斤计较、步步为营,又能剩下多少真心呢?看着他们简单而真挚的笑靥,艰苦中不失甜蜜的生活,荧屏下的我们,也会露出会心的微笑。可惜,一切只是追忆,太纯净的东西总是难于存活于现实社会。那时的程朗,是一个只要今天过得开心明天那怕如何的风火少年,可能因为女人始终都需要一份对未来的安全感,虽然对以往的日子并不后悔,但素梅还是抛下幼子,离开丈夫,走向列值得托付的良人。

小时候只觉得这女人无情无义,不配为人妻为人母,但多年以后再回顾,却已释然了。女人首先是人,之后才是女人,她也有追求过更好生活的权利,割舍的过程可能也带给别人痛苦,但正如程朗所说:

如果不是我那么的不长进,我们不会走到这一步。

她毕竟没有只为了家庭默默奉献、埋没一生的义务。既然她觉得没有能力让程朗成为她想要的,那么放手,对彼此也许不是一件坏事。

后来,素梅因为伤残而带走了她和程朗的独子子洋,那是全剧最让我感伤的一幕。不过说来也好笑,当看完整部剧后,最令我感激的,还是这一幕,虽然再也看不到这个可爱的小朋友的表演了,但子洋也因此避过了后来高天俊的疯狂大报复,总算是程家不幸中的一大幸。

与素梅在一起时,程朗是没有意识到要考虑

明天

,而和展翘在一起时,则是从一开始就不去想明天。早知道了她是等待移民澳洲的越南难民,但程朗还是情不自禁地喜欢上这个

很拽

的女孩子。沙滩庆生,雨中激吻、片场嬉戏,一切都是那么的火热、浪漫、浓烈,世界是如此的美好,忧愁烦恼再不足道,仿如不知今夕何年,只留下情人间的你侬我侬。

但有如宿命般的,当这两个人一开始考虑明天时,变故就随之而来了:

当程朗一家开始接受展翘这个人时,展翘的移民申请就获得批准了,为了能接出还留下越南的弟弟,她,必须离去;

弟弟的意外身故,令澳洲公民的身份对展翘再无任何意义,痛苦之余,她回到香港,盼望可与程朗再续前缘,而偏偏此时,程朗已和文薏走到了一起;

一番纠缠后,展翘决定退出并离开香港这个伤心地,却因为为了救程朗而死于高天俊手下,留给程朗无尽的叹息

一直最喜欢展翘,无论是她的毅然离去还是后来的任性捣乱,都总能理解她的立场:比程朗、比自己更重要的,是弟弟的平安;当确认已无法再得到程朗的心时,就决然转身

或者是因为自己也是喜欢

很拽

的角色,又或者仅仅因为,程朗与她在一起时,是最没有压力、日子又过得最惬意和无忧无虑,最为晴朗宜人,所以,没道理的,也对这个角色投入了最多的期盼、最多的感情。

程朗与沈文薏,因该是最多拥趸支持的一对,也是编剧导演大力塑造的一对,不过因为这是一段开始于暗恋的感情,而我这个怪胎一向都难被暗恋所感动,所以一直都无甚感觉。但话说回来,一直认为文薏看人或者说感受人的眼光是一流的,从后来她

改造

程朗的种种来看,她梦中的白马王子,应如高天俊一类积极进取、奋发向上的青年才俊,但当程朗以那情深无悔的形象闯进她的视线时,她却能感受到此君的真与诚并为之陷落。同意文薏在程朗和高天俊之间作了正确的选择,毕竟在高天俊还未大奸大恶之前,他那种处处以自我为中心、视女人如附属的心态也屡在流露,而在女人的爱情设计中,

只是好男的的表,

才是好男人的里。

这一对倒是从一开始就在打算明天,程朗甚至还为此努力改造自己

虽然过程中不乏摩擦、痛苦

姑且不计较这种做人一定要力争上游的主流价值观是否一定正确,但有理由相信,明天,如果没没有高天俊的种种报复,他们是可以细水长流地走到白头到老。不敢肯定如果文薏当初未曾接受过高天俊的爱意,他在知道文薏其实喜欢的是程朗后会否如此疯狂,但可是肯定的是,为了逃避一段感情而去接受另一段感情是幼稚的,为了逃避一个人而去接受另一个人是危险的。

最后,因展翘的死亡及程家的家破人亡,程朗对文薏说

我们都需要冷静一下

,虽然从乐观的角度看,未来人生漫长路,他们还是有很多机会再走到一起的,但对于本剧来说,明天却是那么的暗淡。当《对不起,我爱你》的音乐响起,程朗驾着摩托驶向夕阳,那萧瑟的镜头,仍然令人吹嘘不已

港股一路造好

今天才恍然大悟.

7月1日是香港回归10周年啊,北京政府本着面子问题,无论如何也要恒生指数飞上去的.

果不其然,20000点之后就是22000点.

估计7.1前能升到23000.

Introduction In many communications applications, such as Voice over IP, instant messaging, and presence, it is necessary for network servers to access per-user information in the process of servicing a request. This per-user information resides within the network, but is managed by the end user themselves. Its management can be done through a multiplicity of access points, including the web, a wireless handset, or a PC application. There are many examples of per-user information. One is presence [20] authorization policy, which defines rules about which watchers are allowed to subscribe to a presentity, and what information they are allowed to access. Another is presence lists, which are lists of users whose presence is desired by a watcher [26]. One way to obtain presence information for the list is to subscribe to a resource which represents that list [21]. In this case, the Resource List Server (RLS) requires access to this list in order to process a SIP [16] SUBSCRIBE [28] request for it. Another way to obtain presence for the users on the list is for a watcher to subscribe to each user individually. In that case, it is convenient to have a server store the list, and when the client boots, it fetches the list from the server. This would allow a user to access their resource lists from different clients. This specification describes a protocol that can be used to manipulate this per-user data. It is called the Extensible Markup Language (XML) Configuration Access Protocol (XCAP). XCAP is a set of conventions for mapping XML documents and document components into HTTP URIs, rules for how the modification of one resource affects another, data validation constraints, and authorization policies associated with access to those resources. Because of this structure, normal HTTP primitives can be used to manipulate the data. XCAP is based heavily on ideas borrowed from the Application Configuration Access Protocol (ACAP) [25], but it is not an extension of it, nor does it have any dependencies on it. Like ACAP, XCAP is meant to support the configuration needs for a multiplicity of applications, rather than just a single one.2. Overview of Operation Each application (where an application refers to a use case that implies a collection of data and associated semantics) that makes use of XCAP specifies an application usage (Section 5). This application usage defines the XML schema [2] for the data used by the application, along with other key pieces of information. The principal task of XCAP is to allow clients to read, write, modify,Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 4] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 create and delete pieces of that data. These operations are supported using HTTP/1.1 [6]. An XCAP server acts as a repository for collections of XML documents. There will be documents stored for each application. Within each application, there are documents stored for each user. Each user can have a multiplicity of documents for a particular application. To access some component of one of those documents, XCAP defines an algorithm for constructing a URI that can be used to reference that component. Components refer to any element or attribute within the document. Thus, the HTTP URIs used by XCAP point to a document, or to pieces of information that are finer grained than the XML document itself. An HTTP resource which follows the naming conventions and validation constraints defined here is called an XCAP resource. Since XCAP resources are also HTTP resources, they can be accessed using HTTP methods. Reading an XCAP resource is accomplished with HTTP GET, creating or modifying one is done with HTTP PUT, and removing one of the resources is done with an HTTP DELETE. XCAP resources do not represent processing scripts; as a result, POST operations to HTTP URIs representing XCAP resources are not defined. Properties that HTTP associates with resources, such as entity tags, also apply to XCAP resources. Indeed, entity tags are particularly useful in XCAP, as they allow a number of conditional operations to be performed. XML documents which are equivalent for the purposes of many applications may differ in their physical representation. With XCAP resources, the canonical form with comments [19] of an XML document determines the logical equivalence. In other words, the canonical specification determines, how significant whitespace MUST be processed and for example, that new inserted attributes may appear in any order within the physical representation.3.

are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [7] and indicate requirement levels for compliant implementations.4. Definitions The following terms are used throughout this document:Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 5] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 XCAP Resource: An HTTP resource representing an XML document, an element within an XML document, or an attribute of an element within an XML document that follows the naming and validation constraints of XCAP. XCAP Server: An HTTP server that understands how to follow the naming and validation constraints defined in this specification. XCAP Client: An HTTP client that understands how to follow the naming and validation constraints defined in this specification. Application: A collection of software components within a network whose operation depends on data managed and stored on an XCAP server. Application Usage: Detailed information on the interaction of an application with the XCAP server. Application Unique ID (AUID): A unique identifier within the namespace of application unique IDs created by this specification that differentiates XCAP resources accessed by one application from XCAP resources accessed by another. Naming Conventions: The part of an application usage that specifies well-known URIs used by an application, or more generally, specifies the URIs that are typically accessed by an application during its processing. XCAP User Identifier (XUI): The XUI is a string, valid as a path element in an HTTP URI, that is associated with each user served by the XCAP server. XCAP Root: A context that contains all of the documents across all application usages and users that are managed by the server. Document Selector: A sequence of path segments, with each segment being separated by a

/

, that identify the XML document within an XCAP root that is being selected. Node Selector: A sequence of path segments, with each segment being separated by a

/

, that identify the XML node (element or attribute) being selected within a document. Node Selector Separator: A single path segment equal to two tilde characters

~~

that is used to separate the document selector from the node selector within an HTTP URI.Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 6] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 Document URI: The HTTP URI containing the XCAP root and document selector, resulting in the selection of a specific document. As a result, performing a GET against the document URI would retrieve the document. Node URI: The HTTP URI containing the XCAP root, document selector, node selector separator and node selector, resulting in the selection of a specific XML node. XCAP Root URI: An HTTP URI that representing the XCAP root. Although a syntactically valid URI, the XCAP Root URI does not correspond to an actual resource on an XCAP server. Actual resources are created by appending additional path information to the XCAP Root URI. Global Tree: A URI that represents the parent for all global documents for a particular application usage within a particular XCAP root. Home Directory: A URI that represents the parent for all documents for a particular user for a particular application usage within a particular XCAP root. Positional Insertion: A PUT operation that results in the insertion of a new element into a document such that its position relative to other children of the same parent is set by the client.5. Application Usages Each XCAP resource on a server is associated with an application. In order for an application to use those resources, application specific conventions must be specified. Those conventions include the XML schema that defines the structure and constraints of the data, well known URIs to bootstrap access to the data, and so on. All of those application specific conventions are defined by the application usage.5.1. Application Unique ID (AUID) Each application usage is associated with a name, called an Application Unique ID (AUID). This name uniquely identifies the application usage within the namespace of application usages, and is different from AUIDs used by other applications. AUIDs exist in one of two namespaces. The first namespace is the IETF namespace. This namespace contains a set of tokens, each of which is registered with IANA. These registrations occur with the publication of standards track RFCs [27] based on the guidelines in Section 15. The secondRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 7] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 namespace is the vendor-proprietary namespace. Each AUID in that namespace is prefixed with the reverse domain name of the organization creating the AUID, followed by a period, followed by any vendor defined token. As an example, the example.com domain can create an AUID with the value

com.example.foo

but cannot create one with the value

org.example.foo

. AUIDs within the vendor namespace do not need to be registered with IANA. The vendor namespace is also meant to be used in lab environments where no central registry is needed. The syntax for AUIDs, expressed in ABNF [12] (and using some of the BNF defined in RFC 3986 [13]) is: AUID = global-auid / vendor-auid global-auid = auid auid = 1*auid-char vendor-auid = rev-hostname

.

auid rev-hostname = toplabel *(

.

domainlabel ) domainlabel = alphanum / alphanum *( alphanum /

) alphanum toplabel = ALPHA / ALPHA *( alphanum /

) alphanum auid-char = auid-unreserved / pct-encoded / sub-delims /

:

/

@

auid-unreserved = ALPHA / DIGIT /

/

_

/

~

The allowed characters for the auid production is a subset of the pchar production defined in RFC3986. In particular, it omits the

.

, which allows for the auid to be separated from the reverse hostname.5.2. Default Document Namespace In order for the XCAP server to match a URI to an element or attribute of a document, any XML namespace prefixes used within the URI must be expanded [3]. This expansion requires a namespace binding context. That context maps namespace prefixes to namespace URIs. It also defines a default namespace that applies to elements in the URI without namespace prefixes. The namespace binding context comes from two sources. Firstly, the mapping of namespace prefixes to namespace URIs is obtained from the URI itself (see Section 6.4). However, the default document namespace is defined by the application usage itself, and applies to all URIs referencing resources within that application usage. All application usages MUST define a namespace URI that represents the default document namespace to be used when evaluating URIs. The default document namespace does not apply to elements or attributes within the documents themselves – it applies only to the evaluation of URIs within that application usage. Indeed, the term

default document namespace

is distinct from the term

default namespace

. The latter has the standard meaning withinRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 8] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 XML documents, and the former refers to the default used in evaluation of XCAP URIs. XCAP does not change in any way the mechanisms for determining the default namespace within XML documents. However, if a document contains a URI representing an XCAP resource, the default document namespace defined by the application usage applies to that URI as well.5.3. Data Validation One of the responsibilities of an XCAP server is to validate the content of each XCAP resource when an XCAP client tries to modify one. This is done using two mechanisms. Firstly, all application usages MUST describe their document contents using XML schema [2]. The application usage MUST also identify the MIME type for documents compliant to that schema. Unfortunately, XML schemas cannot represent every form of data constraint. As an example, one XML element may contain an integer which defines the maximum number of instances of another element. This constraint cannot be represented with XML schema. However, such constraints may be important to the application usage. The application usage defines any additional constraints beyond those in the schema. Of particular importance are uniqueness constraints. In many cases, an application will require that there only be one instance of some element or attribute within a particular scope. Each uniqueness constraint needs to be specified by identifying the field, or combinations of fields, that need to be unique, and then identifying the scope in which that uniqueness applies. One typical scope is the set of all elements of a certain name within the same parent. Another typical scope is the set of all URIs valid within a particular domain. In some cases these constraints can be specified using XML schema, which provides the

unique

element for this purpose. Other uniqueness constraints, such as URI uniqueness across a domain, cannot be expressed by schema. Whether or not the schema is used to express some of the uniqueness requirements, the application usage MUST specify all uniqueness requirements when it defines its data validation needs. For example, the resource lists application usage [22] requires that each

list

element have a unique value for the

name

attribute within a single parent. As another example, the RLS services application usage [22] requires that the value of the

uri

attribute of the

service

element be a URI that is unique within the domain of the URI. URI constraints represent another form of constraints. These areRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 9] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 constraints on the scheme or structure of the scheme specific part of the URI. These kinds of constraints cannot be expressed in an XML schema. If these constraints are important to an application usage, they need to be explicitly called out. Another important data constraint is referential integrity. Referential integrity is important when the name or value of an element or attribute is used as a key to select another element or attribute. An application usage MAY specify referential integrity constraints. However, XCAP servers are not a replacement for Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS), and therefore clients MUST NOT depend on servers to maintain referential integrity. XCAP clients are responsible for making all of the appropriate changes to documents in order to maintain referential integrity. Another constraint is character encoding. XML allows documents to be encoded using several different character sets. However, this specification mandates that all documents used with XCAP MUST be encoded using UTF-8. This cannot be changed by an application usage. The data validation information is consumed by both clients, which use them to make sure they construct requests that will be accepted by the server, and by servers, which validate the constraints when they receive a request (with the exception of referential integrity constraints, which are not validated by the server).5.4. Data Semantics For each application usage, the data present in the XML document has a well defined semantic. The application usage defines that semantic, so that a client can properly construct a document in order to achieve the desired result. They are not used by the server, as it is purposefully unaware of the semantics of the data it is managing. The data semantics are expressed in English prose by the application usage. One particularly important semantic is the base URI to be used for the resolution of any relative URI references pointed to XCAP resources. As discussed below, relative URI references pointing to XCAP resources cannot be resolved using the retrieval URI as the base URI. Therefore, it is up to the application usage to specify the base URI.5.5. Naming Conventions In addition to defining the meaning of the document in the context of a particular application, an application usage has to specify how the applications obtain the documents they need. In particular, it needsRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 10] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 to define any well-known URIs used for bootstrapping purposes, and document any other conventions on the URIs used by an application. It should also document how documents reference each other. These conventions are called naming conventions. For many application usages, users need only a single document. In such a case, it is RECOMMENDED that the application usage require that this document be called

index

and exist within the users home directory. As an example, the RLS services application usage allows an RLS to obtain the contents of a resource list when the RLS receives a SUBSCRIBE request for a SIP URI identifying an RLS service. The application usage specifies that the list of service definitions is present within a specific document with a specific name within the global tree. This allows the RLS to perform a single XCAP request to fetch the service definition for the service associated with the SIP URI in a SUBSCRIBE request. Naming conventions are used by XCAP clients to construct their URIs. The XCAP server does not make use of them.5.6. Resource Interdependencies When a user modifies an XCAP resource, the content of many other resources is affected. For example, when a user deletes an XML element within a document, it does so by issuing a DELETE request against the URI for the element resource. However, deleting this element also deletes all child elements and their attributes, each of which is also an XCAP resource. As such, manipulation of one resource affects the state of other resources. For the most part, these interdependencies are fully specified by the XML schema used by the application usage. However, in some application usages, there is a need for the server to relate resources together, and such a relationship cannot be specified through a schema. This occurs when changes in one document will affect another document. Typically, this is the case when an application usage is defining a document that acts as a collection of information defined in other documents. As an example, when a user creates a new RLS service (that is, it creates a new

service

element within an RLS services document), the server adds that element to a read-only global list of services maintained by the server in the global tree. This read-only global list is accessed by the RLS when processing a SIP SUBSCRIBE request. Resource interdependencies are used by both XCAP clients and servers.Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 11] Internet-Draft XCAP October 20065.7. Authorization Policies By default, each user is able to access (read, modify, and delete) all of the documents below their home directory, and any user is able to read documents within the global directory. However, only trusted users, explicitly provisioned into the server, can modify global documents. The application usage can specify a different authorization policy that applies to all documents associated with that application usage. An application usage can also specify whether another application usage is used to define the authorization policies. An application usage for setting authorization policies can also be defined subsequent to the definition of the the main application usage. In such a case, the main application usage needs only to specify that such a usage will be defined in the future. If an application usage does not wish to change the default authorization policy, it can merely state that the default policy is used. The authorization policies defined by the application usage are used by the XCAP server during its operation.5.8. Data Extensibility An XCAP server MUST understand an application usage in order to process an HTTP request made against a resource for that particular application usage. However, it is not required for the server to understand all of the contents of a document used by an application usage. A server is required to understand the baseline schema defined by the application usage. However, those schemas can define points of extensibility where new content can be added from other namespaces and corresponding schemas. Sometimes, the server will understand those namespaces and therefore have access to their schemas. Sometimes, it will not. A server MUST allow for documents that contain elements from namespaces not known to the server. In such a case, the server cannot validate that such content is schema compliant; it will only verify that the XML is well-formed. If a client wants to verify that a server supports a particular namespace before operating on a resource, it can query the server for its capabilities using the XCAP Capabilities application usage, discussed in Section 12.Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 12] Internet-Draft XCAP October 20065.9. Documenting Application Usages Application usages are documented in specifications which convey the information described above. In particular, an application usage specification MUST provide the following information: o Application Unique ID (AUID): If the application usage is meant for general use on the Internet, the application usage MUST register the AUID into the IETF tree using the IANA procedures defined in Section 15. o XML Schema o Default Document Namespace o MIME Type o Validation Constraints o Data Semantics o Naming Conventions o Resource Interdependencies o Authorization Policies5.10. Guidelines for Creating Application Usages The primary design task when creating a new application usage is to define the schema. Although XCAP can be used with any XML document, intelligent schema design will improve the efficiency and utility of the document when it is manipulated with XCAP. XCAP provides three fundamental ways to select elements amongst a set of siblings – by the expanded name of the element, by its position, or by the value of a specific attribute. Positional selection always allows a client to get exactly what it wants. However, it requires a client to cache a copy of the document in order to construct the predicate. Furthermore, if a client performs a PUT, it requires the client to reconstruct the PUT processing that a server would follow in order to update its local cached copy. Otherwise, the client will be forced to re-GET the document after every PUT, which is inefficient. As such, it is a good idea to design schemas such that common operations can be performed without requiring the client to cache a copy of the document. Without positional selection, a client can pick the element at eachRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 13] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 step by its expanded name or the value of an attribute. Many schemas include elements that can be repeated within a parent (often, minOccurs equals zero or one, and maxOccurs is unbounded). As such, all of the elements have the same name. This leaves the attribute value as the only way to select an element. Because of this, if an application usage expects user to manipulate elements or attributes that are descendants of an element which can repeat, that element SHOULD include, in its schema, an attribute which can be suitably used as a unique index. Furthermore, the naming conventions defined by that application usage SHOULD specify this uniqueness constraint explicitly. URIs often make a good choice for such unique index. They have fundamental uniqueness properties, and are also usually of semantic significance in the application usage. However, care must be taken when using a URI as an attribute value. URI equality is usually complex. However, attribute equality is performed by the server using XML rules, which are based on case sensitive string comparison. Thus, XCAP will match URIs based on lexical equality, not functional equality. In such cases, an application usage SHOULD consider these implications carefully. XCAP provides the ability of a client to operate on a single element, attribute or document at a time. As a result, it may be possible that common operations the client might perform will require a sequence of multiple requests. This is inefficient, and introduces the possibility of failure conditions when another client modifies the document in the middle of a sequence. In such a case, the client will be forced to detect this case using entity tags (discussed below in Section 7.11), and undo its previous changes. This is very difficult. As a result, the schemas SHOULD be defined so that common operations generally require a single request to perform. Consider an example. Lets say an application usage is defining permissions for users to perform certain operations. The schema can be designed in two ways. The top level of the tree can identify users, and within each user, there can be the permissions associated with the user. In an alternative design, the top level of the tree identifies each permission, and within that permission, the set of users who have it. If, in this application usage, it is common to change the permission for a user from one value to another, the former schema design is better for xcap; it will require a single PUT to make such a change. In the latter case, either the entire document needs to be replaced (which is a single operation), or two PUT operations need to occur – one to remove the user from the old permission, and one to add the user to the new permission.Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 14] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 Naming conventions form another key part of the design of an application usage. The application usage should be certain that XCAP clients know where to

start

to retrieve and modify documents of interest. Generally, this will involve the specification of a well- known document at a well-known URI. That document can contain references to other documents that the client needs to read or modify.6. URI Construction In order to manipulate an XCAP resource, the data must be represented by an HTTP URI. XCAP defines a specific naming convention for constructing these URIs. The URI is constructed by concatenating the XCAP root with the document selector with the node selector separator with a percent-encoded form of the node selector. This is followed by an optional query component that defines namespace bindings used in evaluating the URI. The XCAP root is the enclosing context in which all XCAP resources live. The document selector is a path that identifies a document within the XCAP root. The node selector separator is a path segment with a value of double tilde (

~~

), and SHOULD NOT be percent-encoded, as advised in Section 2.3 of RFC 3986 [13]. URIs containing %7E%7E should be normalized to ~~ for comparison; they are equivalent. The node selector separator is piece of syntactic sugar that separates the document selector from the node selector. The node selector is an expression that identifies a component of the document, such as an element or attribute. The sections below describe these components in more detail.6.1. XCAP Root The root of the XCAP hierarchy is called the XCAP root. It defines the context in which all other resources exist. The XCAP root is represented with an HTTP URI, called the XCAP Root URI. This URI is a valid HTTP URI; however, it doesn

t point to any resource that actually exists on the server. Its purpose is to identify the root of the tree within the domain where all XCAP documents are stored. It can be any valid HTTP URI, but MUST NOT contain a query component (a complete XCAP URI may have a query component, but it is not part of the XCAP root URI). It is RECOMMENDED that it be equal to xcap.domain where domain is the domain of the provider. As an example,

http://xcap.example.com

might be used as the XCAP root URI within the example.com domain. Typically, the XCAP root URI is provisioned into client devices. If not explicitly provisioned, clients SHOULD assume the form xcap.domain where domain is the domain of their service provider (for SIP, this would be the domain part ofRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 15] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 their Address-of-Record (AOR)). A server or domain MAY support multiple XCAP root URIs. In such a case, it is effectively operating as if it were serving separate domains. There is never information carryover or interactions between resources in different XCAP root URIs. When a client generates an HTTP request to a URI identifying an XCAP resource, RFC 2616 procedures for the construction of the Request-URI apply. In particular, the authority component of the URI may not be present in the Request-URI if the request is sent directly to the origin server. The XCAP root URI can also be a relative HTTP URI. It is the responsibility of the application usage to specify the base URI for an HTTP URI representing an XCAP resource whenever such a URI appears within a document defined by that application usage. Generally speaking, it is unsafe to use the retrieval URI as the base URI. This is because any URI that points to an ancestor for a particular element or attribute can contain content including that element or attribute. If that element or attribute contained a relative URI reference, it would be resolved relative to whatever happened to be used to retrieve the content, and this will often not be the base URI defined by the application usage.6.2. Document Selector Each document within the XCAP root is identified by its document selector. The document selector is a sequence of path segments, separated by a slash (

/

). These path segments define a hierarchical structure for organizing documents within any XCAP root. The first path segment MUST be the XCAP AUID. So, continuing the example above, all of the documents used by the resource lists application would be under

http://xcap.example.com/resource-lists

. Implementors making use of HTTP servlets should be aware that XCAP may require them to get authorization from the server administrator to place resources within this specific subset of the URI namespace. It is assumed that each application will have data that is set by users, and/or it will have global data that applies to all users. As a result, beneath each AUID there are two sub-trees. One, called

users

, holds the documents that are applicable to specific users, and the other, called

global

, holds documents applicable to all users. The subtree beneath

global

is called the global tree. The path segment after the AUID MUST either be

global

or

users

. Within the

users

tree are zero or more sub-trees, each of whichRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 16] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 identifies documents that apply to a specific user. Each user known to the server is associated with a username, called the XCAP User Identifier (XUI). Typically, an endpoint is provisioned with the value of the XUI. For systems that support SIP applications, it is RECOMMENDED that the XUI be equal to the Address-of-Record (AOR) for the user (i.e., sip:joe@example.com). Since SIP endpoints generally know their AOR, they will also know their XUI. As a consequence, if no XUI is explicitly provisioned, a SIP UA SHOULD assume it is equal to their AOR. This XUI MUST be used as the path segment beneath the

users

segment. Since the SIP URI allows for characters which are not permitted in HTTP URI path segments (such as the

?

and

/

characters, which are permitted in the user part of the SIP URI), any such characters MUST be percent encoded. The subtree beneath an XUI for a particular user is called their home directory.

User

in this context should be interpreted loosely; a user might correspond to device, for example. XCAP does not itself define what it means for documents to

apply

to a user, beyond specification of a baseline authorization policy, described below in Section 8. Each application usage can specify additional authorization policies which depend on data used by the application itself. The remainder of the document selector (the path following

global

or the XUI) points to specific documents for that application usage. Subdirectories are permitted, but are NOT RECOMMENDED. XCAP provides no way to create sub-directories or to list their contents, thus limiting their utility. If subdirectories are used, there MUST not be a document in a directory with the same name as a sub-directory. The final path segment in the document selector identifies the actual document in the hierarchy. This is equivalent to a filename, except that XCAP does not require that its document resources be stored as files in a file system. However, the term

filename

is used to describe the final path segment in the document selector. In traditional filesystems, the filename would have a filename extension, such as

.xml

. There is nothing in this specification that requires or prevents such extensions from being used in the filename. In some cases, the application usage will specify a naming convention for documents, and those naming conventions may or may not specify a file extension. For example, in the RLS services application usage [22], documents in the user

s home directory with the filename

index

will be used by the server to compute the global index, which is also a document with the filename

index

. Barring specific guidelines in the application usage, if a user has a single document for a particular application usage, this SHOULD be called

index

.Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 17] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 When the naming conventions in an application usage do not constrain the filename conventions (or, more generally, the document selector), an application will know the filename (or more generally, the document selector) because it is included as a reference in a document which is at a well known location. As another example, within the index document defined by RLS services, the

service

element has a child element called

resource-list

whose content is a URI pointing to a resource list within the users home directory. As a result, if the user creates a new document, and then references that document from a well-known document (such as the index document above), it doesn

t matter whether the user includes an extension in the filename or not, as long as the user is consistent and maintains referential integrity. As an example, the path segment

/resource-lists/users/sip:joe@example.com/index

is a document selector. Concatenating the XCAP root URI with the document selector produces the HTTP URI

http://xcap.example.com/resource-lists/users/ sip:joe@example.com/index

. In this URI, the AUID is

resource- lists

, and the document is in the user tree with the XUI

sip:joe@example.com

with filename

index

.6.3. Node Selector The node selector specifies specific nodes of the XML document which are to be accessed. A node refers to an XML element, an attribute of an element, or a set of namespace bindings. The node selector is an expression which identifies an element, attribute or set of namespace bindings. Its grammar is: node-selector = element-selector [

/

terminal-selector] terminal-selector = attribute-selector / namespace-selector / extension-selector element-selector = step *(

/

step) step = by-name / by-pos / by-attr / by-pos-attr / extension-selector by-name = NameorAny by-pos = NameorAny

namespace::*

extension-selector = 1*( %x00-2e / %x30-ff ) ; anything but

/

The QName grammar is defined in the XML namespaces [3] specification, and the AttValue grammar is defined in the XML specification XML 1.0 [1]. The extension-selector is included for purposes of extensibility. It can be composed of any character except the slash, which is the delimeter amongst steps. Any characters in an extension that cannot be represented in a URI MUST be percent-encoded before placement into a URI. Note that the double quote, left square bracket and right square bracket characters, which are meaningful to XCAP, cannot be directly represented in the HTTP URI. As a result, they are percent-encoded when placed within the HTTP URI. In addition to these characters, an apostrophe (

) character can be used as a delimiter within XPath expressions. Furthermore, since XML allows for non-ASCII characters, the names of elements and attributes may not be directly representable in a URI. Any such characters MUST be represented by converting them to an octet sequence corresponding to their representation in UTF-8, and then percent-encoding that sequence of octets. Similarly, the XML specification defines the QName production for the grammar for element and attribute names, and the AttValue production for the attribute values. Unfortunately, the characters permitted by these productions include some that are not allowed for pchar, which is the production for the allowed set of characters in path segments in the URI. The AttValue production allows many such characters within the US-ASCII set, including the space. Those characters MUST be percent- encoded when placed in the URI. Furthermore, QName and AttValue allow many Unicode characters, outside of US-ASCII. When these characters need to be represented in the HTTP URI, they are percent- encoded. To do this, the data should be encoded first as octets according to the UTF-8 character encoding [18] and then only those octets that do not correspond to characters in the pchar set should be percent-encoded. For example, the character A would be represented as

A

, the character LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH GRAVE would be represented as

%C3%80

, and the character KATAKANA LETTER A would be represented as

%E3%82%A2

. As a result, the grammar above represents the expressions processed by the XCAP server internally after it has decoded the URI. The on- the-wire format is dictated by RFC 3986 [13]. In the discussions and examples below, when the node selectors are not part of an HTTP URI, they are presented in their internal format prior to encoding. If anRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 19] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 example includes a node selector within an HTTP URI, it is presented in its percent-encoded form. The node selector is based on the concepts in XPath [10]. Indeed, the node selector expression, before it is percent-encoded for representation in the HTTP URI, happens to be a valid XPath expression. However, XPath provides a set of functionality far richer than is needed here, and its breadth would introduce much unneeded complexity into XCAP. To determine the XML element, attribute or namespace bindings selected by the node selector, processing begins at the root node of the XML document. The first step in the element selector is then taken. Each step chooses a single XML element within the current document context. The document context is the point within the XML document from which a specific step is evaluated. The document context begins at the root node of the document. When a step determines an element within that context, that element becomes the new context for evaluation of the next step. Each step can select an element by its name (expanded), by a combination of name and attribute value, by name and position, or by name, position and attribute. In all cases, the name can be wildcarded, so that all elements get selected. The selection operation operates as follows. Within the current document context, the children of that context are enumerated in document order. If the context is the root node of the document, its child element is the root element of the document. If the context is an element, its children are all of the children of that element (naturally). Next, those elements whose name is not a match for NameorAny are discarded. An element name is a match if NameorAny is the wildcard, or, if its not a wildcard, the element name matches NameorAny. Matching is discussed below. The result is an ordered list of elements. The elements in the list are further filtered by the predicates, which are the expressions in square brackets following NameorAny. Each predicate further prunes the elements from the current ordered list. These predicates are evaluated in order. If the content of the predicate is a position, the position-th element is selected (that is, treat

position

as a variable, and take the element whose position equals that variable), and all others are discarded. If there are fewer elements in the list than the value of position, the result is a no-match. If the content of the predicate is an attribute name and value, all elements possessing that attribute with that value are selected, and all others are discarded. Note that, although a document can haveRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 20] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 namespace declarations within elements, those elements cannot be selected using a namespace declaration as a predicate. That is, a step like

el-name[@xmlns=

namespace

]

will never match an element, even if there is an element in the list that specifies a default namespace of

namespace

. In other words, a namespace node is NOT an attribute. If the namespaces in scope for an element are needed, they can be selected using the namespace-selector described below. If there are no elements with attributes having the given name and value, the result is a no-match. After the predicates have been applied, the result will be a no- match, one element, or multiple elements. If the result is multiple elements, the node selector is invalid. Each step in a node selector MUST produce a single element to form the context for the next step. This is more restrictive than general XPath expressions, which allow a context to contain multiple nodes. If the result is a no-match, the node selector is invalid. The node selector is only valid if a single element was selected. This element becomes the context for the evaluation of the next step in the node selector expression. The last location step is either the previously described element selector or a

terminal selector

. If the terminal selector is an attribute selector, the server checks to see if there is an attribute with the same expanded name in the current element context. If there is not, the result is considered a no-match. Otherwise, that attribute is selected. If the terminal selector is a namespace selector, the result is equal to the set of namespace bindings in scope for the element, including the possible default namespace declaration. This specification defines a syntax for representing namespace bindings, so they can be returned to the client in an HTTP response. As a result, once the entire node selector is evaluated against the document, the result will either be a no-match, invalid, a single element, a single attribute or a set of namespace bindings. Matching of element names is performed as follows. The element being compared in the step has its name expanded as described in XML namespaces [3]. The element name in the step is also expanded. This expansion requires that any namespace prefix is converted to its namespace URI. Doing that requires a set of bindings from prefixes to namespace URIs. This set of bindings is obtained from the query component of the URI (see Section 6.4). If the prefix of the QName of an element is empty, the corresponding URI is then the default document namespace URI defined by the application usage, or null if not defined. Comparisons are then performed as described in XML namespaces [3]. Note that the namespace prefix expansions described here are different than those specified in the XPath 1.0Rosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 21] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 specification, but are closer to those currently defined by the XPath 2.0 specification [24]. Matching of attribute names proceeds in a similar way. The attribute in the document has its name expanded as described in XML namespaces [3]. If the attribute name in the attribute selector has a namespace prefix, its name is expanded using the namespace bindings obtained from the query component of the URI. An unprefixed attribute QName is in no namespace. Comments, text content (including whitespace), and processing instructions can be present in a document, but cannot be selected by the expressions defined here. Of course, if such information is present in a document, and a user selects an XML element enclosing that data, that information would be included in a resulting GET, for example. Furthermore, whitespace is respected by XCAP. If a client PUTs an element or document that contains whitespace, the server retains that whitespace, and will return the element or document back to the client with exactly the same whitespace. Similarly, when an element is inserted, no additional whitespace is added around the inserted element, and the element gets inserted in a very specific location relative to any whitespace, comments or processing instructions around it. Section 8.2.3 describes where the insertion occurs. As an example, consider the following XML document:

?xml version=

1.0

6.4. Namespace Bindings for the Selector In order to expand the namespace prefixes used in the node selector, a set of bindings from those namespace prefixes to namespace URI must be used. Those bindings are contained in the query component of the URI. If no query component is present, it means that only the default document namespace (as identified by the application usage) is defined. The query component is formatted as a valid xpointer expression [5] after suitable URI encoding as defined in Section 4.1 of the Xpointer framework. This xpointer expression SHOULD only contain expressions from the xmlns() scheme [4]. A server compliant to this specification MUST ignore any xpointer expressions not from the xmlns() scheme. The xmlns() xpointer expressions define the set of namespace bindings in use for evaluating the URI. Note that xpointer expressions were originally designed for usage within fragment identifiers of URIs. However, within XCAP, they are used within query components of URIs. The following example shows a more complex matching operation, this time including the usage of namespace bindings. Consider the following document:

?xml version=

1.0

?

foo xmlns=

urn:test:default-namespace

ns1:bar xmlns:ns1=

Assume that this document has a document URI of

, where

test

is the application usage. This application usage defines aRosenberg Expires April 16, 2007 [Page 23] Internet-Draft XCAP October 2006 default document namespace of

把网页上放置IM

看看这个首页右上角,点开之后可以用来发送msg给我,我用的是jabber。

能用就好,

1.我的jabber client可以看到当前的交谈对象的一些信息,比如IP之类。

2.这种方式可以在不暴露账号的情况下和访客交谈。

3.暂时还不支持显示在线离线。

4.可以发送离线消息,jabber默认支持的。

5.js代码还不算多。

后台本来想做成支持msn账号的,算了,没时间。

Ajax跨域访问的替代方案

Ajax是不能直接做跨域访问的!

看了一下流行的跨域处理,一个是dojo做的iFrame,无奈我对这个不熟,为避免出什么篓子,就不敢用了,另一个是美妙的flash。

flash的安全性控制集中在两个方面,一个是swf访问站点动态数据,另一个是swf和js的交互。

swf文件要访问不同域下的数据源时,需要该数据源所在的域A用crossdomain.xml的方式声明这种来自域B的swf的访问被允许。具体的控制由flash player实现。

一个crossdomain.xml的例子如:

?xml version=

1.0

?

!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy

SYSTEM

http://www.macromedia.com/xml/dtds/cross-domain-policy.dtd

cross-domain-policy

allow-access-from domain=

www.pjoke.com

/

allow-access-from domain=

zhengrenchi.blogbus.com

/

allow-access-from domain=

simonzh.spaces.live.com

/

/cross-domain-policy

当然也可以直接domain=

*

,那么来自任意域的swf都可以访问了它了。

同一个页面上的来自A域的swf和来自B域的HTML中的JS交互,首先需要把object 标签中的

AllowScriptAccess属性声明为always,

然后在A域的swf中添加这样的允许语句:

system.security.allowDomain(

www.pjoke.com

);

system.security.allowDomain(

zhengrenchi.blogbus.com

);

system.security.allowDomain(

simonzh.spaces.live.com

);

事实上,保证这两类安全性的完全在于Adobe发布的标准flashplayer,如果出了别的player就难说了。然而相对于ajax这样无法通过统一渠道控制安全的技术,安全性都变成由浏览器来决定了,flash还是相对占优的。
